2 issues with high priority
Heavy truck traffic on Marsh Road
A Deland resident said removing weight-limit signs on Daltry, Carter and Marsh Roads brought non-stop 18-wheeler traffic, cracking driveways and endangering schoolchildren at a bus stop.
Volusia Forever Charter Amendment 5
Public speakers urged a no vote on Charter Amendment 5, arguing its 'county public purpose' carve-out lets the county develop conservation land without supermajority approval or notice. Speakers also tied the issue to the Taylor Road flood mitigation project, which works because the county owns Lake Moore outright.
